Description

This work is a health and medicine book composed as a practical guide advocating dietary and fasting practices believed to promote natural healing. It espouses the idea that conventional medical treatments, which often rely on medications and regular feeding, are less effective than approaches based on fasting and reliance on the body's innate functions. The author, Edward Hooker Dewey, discusses a no-breakfast regimen and emphasizes fasting as a means to recover from various ailments, presenting these ideas as part of a broader philosophy of health rooted in natural processes.

Published in the early 20th century, the book reflects Dewey's professional experiences, including observations made during his service in Civil War military hospitals. The text is positioned within the health reform movement of the period, challenging established medical standards and proposing an alternative viewpoint on the importance of diet and fasting for maintaining health and curing disease.
